(...) Hi Jaco, That problem sounds familiar. I reported the same thing, and Kevin fixed the bug. Perhaps it was only fixed on the Mac side, or maybe you have a slightly older version of LPub? In any case, I just set 11 for width and 8.5 for height (...) (16 years ago, 20-Jun-08, to lugnet.cad)

(...) Hi Jaco, In case I forgot to mention it, LPub 4 only currently handles DPI. According to the page sizes that Qt supports, A4 is approximately 8.5 and 11.0. The page sizes you used are in centimeters? LPub performs a best fit match of the (...) (16 years ago, 25-Jun-08, to lugnet.cad, FTX)

(...) OK. I tested the results using 11.0 by 8.5 which results in a landscape page fitting the page area.

(...) Hi Jaco, Just curious.... How many total steps in the model (i.e. how many pages before you did any step groups or callouts)? How many pages after laying out the BIs with LPub 4? How long did it take to layout the BIs? Kevin (16 years ago, 26-Jun-08, to lugnet.cad, FTX)

(...) It had 111 steps (thus pages). Now it has 44! It took about 2 to 3 hours to layout the basics and another hour or so to fine tune. All in all about 3 to 4 hours, I guess. Modelling it (creating the MPD) took many more hours though. If you take (...) (16 years ago, 27-Jun-08, to lugnet.cad, FTX)
